4 1.0 INTRODUCTION The SCOTCHMAN IRONWORKER is a versatile, multi-purpose, shearing, punching and forming machine engineered for trouble free operation. The design of the machine combines simplicity of operation with smooth, full stroke control. The ability of the operator to control the machine s direction of movement at any point in the stroke, (i.e. stop, jog or reverse) gives the SCOTCHMAN IRONWORKER a tremendous advantage over mechanical ironworkers. There is no chance of the SCOTCHMAN IRONWORKER being accidentally tripped. The hydraulic system operates at a maximum pressure of 2,100 PSI (143 BAR) and is protected from overload by a built-in relief valve. PAGE 4

18 4.5 MACHINE START-UP Before starting this machine, take time to thoroughly review the safety CD and the operator s manual. Safety instructions are also available on VHS tape. This machine is equipped with a lock-out, disconnect switch. We strongly urge you to follow the OSHA directive CFR (effective ) regarding lock-out, tag-out procedures. Before powering the machine, be sure that all packing materials and tools have been removed from the machine and that all work stations are clear. To power the machine, place the disconnect switch (A) in the ON position. Momentarily power the machine by pressing the green START button and note the rotation of the motor. The motor rotation should be clockwise when viewed from the shaft end of the motor. If it is not correct, the electrician will have to switch two of the three line wires. Motor rotation can not be seen. Once the machine has been powered, it will travel to the position the selector arm (C) is set in. Placing the selector arm in the PUNCH position will cause the arms to move down and the shear to close. Placing the selector arm in the SHEAR position will cause the arms to move up and the shear to open. CAUTION: IF THE SELECTOR ARM IS MOVED WHEN THE POWER TO THE MACHINE IS OFF, THE ARMS WILL TRAVEL TO THAT POSITION WHEN THE MACHINE IS POWERED. 4.6 PUNCH UP ADJUSTMENT SEE FIGURE Remove the punch, if one has been installed. 2.

22 5.0 MAINTENANCE The Scotchman Ironworker is an exceptionally rugged machine designed for long life with a minimum amount of maintenance. A regular program of servicing will extend the machine life and prevent costly downtime. 5.1 LUBRICATION IMPORTANT: Before operating the 5014-CM Ironworker, apply oil to the bar shear blades, angle shear blades and the punch and die. Re-oil the punches and dies every 5 to 10 holes and the blades every 10 to 15 cuts. The oil will allow the machine to shear, punch and strip easier and increase tool life considerably. We recommend cutting oil or motor oil swabbed on with a small brush or applied with a squirt can or spray applicator. Grease the main pins (A & B) and the punch barrel (C) daily. SEE FIGURE 7 ON THE FOLLOWING PAGE. Mobil Grease XHP 222 Special is recommended. Once a week, apply grease to the surface of the beam guide wear plates (D) and grease outer pins on the shear and punch beams (E). Check the oil level in the reservoir once a month. There is an access hole in the base of the machine that allows access to the reservoir. To check the oil level, remove the filler cap and measure the depth of the oil in the reservoir. The fluid should be 1 inch below the top of the reservoir. The recommended hydraulic fluid is a Mobil DTE-25 or equivalent. PAGE 22

23 FIGURE 7 PAGE 23

24 5.2 SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE A program of scheduled maintenance should be set up and documented according to your application and the frequency you use this machine. The following is a list of important items that should be included in a scheduled maintenance program: 1. EVERY 250 HOURS OR THREE MONTHS: A. Check the clearance between the punch barrel (A) and the punch barrel guide (B). FOR PARTS IDENTIFICATION, SEE FIGURE 8 ON THE FOLLOWING PAGE. TO CHECK THE CLEARANCE: 1. With a punch and die properly installed following the instructions in SECTION 6.1, place the selector arm in the SHEAR position. 2. With the punch in the die, jog the machine with the foot pedal, watching for lateral movement of the punch in the die. 3. If lateral movement is noted, turn the machine s power off. Remove the punch barrel (A) and punch barrel guide (B) from the machine and check the tolerance between the two parts. 4. If the tolerance exceeds three (.003) thousandths of an inch (.07mm), replace both parts. 5. When replacing these parts, do not over tighten the drag link bolts (C). The bolts should be tight enough to restrict the punch barrel from rotating, but not so tight that they won t allow the drag links (D) to rotate as the arm travels down. 2. EVERY 500 HOURS OR SIX MONTHS: Check the condition of the shear blades, angle shear blades and any component tools for wear. Replace worn parts promptly. 3. EVERY 1,500 HOURS OR ONE YEAR: Change the hydraulic oil once a year; more often under adverse conditions. TO CHANGE THE HYDRAULIC OIL, turn OFF the power to the machine. Remove the drain plug from the bottom of the reservoir. Allow the oil to drain. Replace with 4 U.S. gallons (15 liters) of a lightweight, non-foaming, hydraulic oil such as Mobil DTE 25 or equivalent. PAGE 24

26 6.0 MACHINE OPERATION 6.1 PUNCH OPERATION ALWAYS WEAR SAFETY GLASSES. PAGE 26 FIGURE 9

27 THE FIRST AND MOST IMPORTANT PROCEDURE IS THE PROPER METHOD OF INSTALLING AND ALIGNING PUNCHES AND DIES. WARNING: FAILURE TO PROPERLY ALIGN PUNCHES AND DIES CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY TO PERSONNEL AND/OR DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT. PLEASE READ CAREFULLY AND UNDERSTAND THE FOLLOWING METHOD. IT WILL ALSO BE HELPFUL TO REFER TO THE SAFETY TAPE PROVIDED FOR A VISUAL REFERENCE. IF YOU DID NOT RECEIVE A SAFETY TAPE, PLEASE CONTACT YOUR DEALER OR THE FACTORY. A. ALIGNMENT AND REMOVAL OF PUNCHES AND DIES. REFER TO FIGURE 9 ON THE PRECEDING PAGE. 1. With the machine in the SHEAR position and the arms up, turn the machine s electrical power OFF at the disconnect switch. 2. Remove the stripper (B) by pressing down on the tab (A) and pulling the stripper toward you. 3. Loosen and remove the bolts (G) holding the die holder (C) and remove the die holder (C) and spacer (D). 4. Loosen the set screw holding the die. Remove the die and set it aside. 5. Loosen and remove the punch retaining nut (E) and set the punch retaining nut and punch aside. 6. Select the proper punch and die. Make sure that there is proper clearance between the punch and die. FOR RECOMMENDED CLEARANCES, SEE PARAGRAPH F IN SECTION 6.1. PLEASE NOTE: ALL OF OUR #20K PUNCHES, INCLUDING OVALS, SQUARES, HEXAGONS & SPECIAL ORDER PUNCHES, ARE SUPPLIED WITH A LOCKING KEY WAY MACHINED INTO THE PUNCH. THIS KEY WAY MATES WITH A KEY BUILT IN TO THE MACHINE'S PUNCH BARREL. ALL PUNCHES USED ON THIS MACHINE MUST BE THE #20K STYLE. 7. Clean both the punch and the die. 8. Insert the proper punch in the punch retaining nut (E) and thread it into the punch barrel (F) and tighten it with a wrench. If you are using a shaped punch, rotate the punch by hand until it seats on the key, before tightening the nut. 9. Insert the proper die in the die holder with the flat side of the die aligned with the set screw. Tighten the set screw firmly with a hex key wrench. 10. Place the die holder (C) on the bolster and raise it up so that the punch enters the die. 11. Insert the spacer plate (D) between the die holder (C) and the bolster. 12. Align the punch to the die so that there is equal clearance on all sides of the punch in the die. 13. Insert and tighten both the die holder bolts (G) firmly. 14. Check to be sure that the punch and die are still in alignment. Realign, if necessary. 15. Replace the stripper (B). NOTE: If punching holes larger than 1", remove the stripper plate or, it will be damaged. PAGE 27

28 16. Check to make sure that there are no objects (such as tools) on or under any of the moving parts of the machine. 17. Place the disconnect switch in the ON position and make sure that the selector arm is still in the SHEAR position. 18. Power the machine by pressing the green START button. 19. Place the selector arm in the PUNCH position. 20. Lubricate the punch and die before using and every 5 to 10 holes, thereafter. FOR LUBRICATION INSTRUCTIONS, SEE SECTION 5.1. CAUTION: REMOVE THE PUNCH AND DIE WHEN IT IS NOT IN USE. B. CHECK PUNCHING TOOLS FOR TIGHTNESS. Periodically during the day, check the punch and die for alignment. To do this, place the selector arm in the SHEAR position and turn the machine s power OFF. Tighten the set screw holding the die, the die holder bolts and the punch retaining nut. Check the alignment of the punch and die. Power the machine and jog the punch up and down several times, to be sure of proper alignment. Place the selector arm in the PUNCH position. C. CONTACT BOTH SIDES OF THE STRIPPER. Punch holes with sufficient material to contact both sides of the punch stripper. If the workpiece does not contact both sides of the stripper, the side thrust may break the punch and will deform the workpiece. D. SPECIAL STRIPPERS MAY BE REQUIRED FOR CERTAIN JOBS. The standard stripper has been designed to work for most applications. For other applications, such as stripping small channel, a special stripper may have to be fabricated. The important consideration is to keep material level while stripping. When punching thin strap iron, the material will tend to draw up into the stripper. To prevent this, a plate that bolts to the bottom of the stripper is supplied. This type of stripper will also allow you to punch in the corners of material. There is an oversize stripper available for oversize punching applications. PAGE 28

29 E. PUNCHING ANGLE IRON. This machine is designed to punch angle iron with the leg down. If the application requires punching closer to the web than the standard dies allow, special offset dies are available. FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON PUNCHES AND DIES, SEE THE TOOLING MANUAL. CAUTION: PUNCHING ANGLE IRON WITH THE LEG UP WILL CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE PUNCH RETAINING NUT. F. PUNCHING CAPACITIES. MAXIMUM PUNCH SIZES FOR MILD STEEL (60,000 PSI TENSILE) MATERIAL THICKNESS DIAMETER OF HOLE INCHES MM INCHES MM 1/4 6 OPTIONAL DIE HOLDER 2-1/4 57 5/16 8 OPTIONAL DIE HOLDER /8 10 STANDARD DIE HOLDER 1-5/8 41 1/2 12 STANDARD DIE HOLDER 1-3/ /4 19 STANDARD DIE HOLDER 3/4 19 NOTE: 3/4 INCH IS THE MAXIMUM MATERIAL THICKNESS. FIGURE 10 PAGE 29

30 Your Scotchman Ironworker is designed to operate in mild steel. Within conservative limits, it can also operate in medium carbon annealed steels and some forms of abrasion resistant steels. Conditions of high shock can be encountered when punching alloy steels and accordingly, the machine rating must be reduced. NOTE: WHEN CONDITIONS OF HIGH SHOCK ARE ENCOUNTERED, SET THE DOWN STROKE OF THE MACHINE SO THAT THE PUNCH STOPS JUST ABOVE THE PLANE OF THE DIE. THIS WILL REDUCE THE SHOCK WHEN THE PUNCH BREAKS THROUGH THE MATERIAL. The 5014-CM Ironworker uses # 20K punches and dies that have a built-in clearance of thirty two (.032) thousandths of an inch. Under normal punching conditions, a punch will use a corresponding die stamped the same size. A 3/8 inch punch will use a die stamped 3/8 inch. All Scotchman #20K punches and dies are stamped with the size. All dies have a larger hole in the bottom side for slug relief. Make sure that the smaller side of the die mates to the punch before installing it in the machine. When punching materials other than mild steel or in cases of high punch shock, we recommend increasing the CLEARANCE. In thin materials, the recommended clearance is 1/10 of the material thickness. Due to working clearances in the machine, we do not recommend clearances of less than 1/64 of an inch. G. DO NOT PUNCH MATERIAL THICKER THAN THE DIAMETER OF THE PUNCH. This "RULE OF THUMB" can be extended, but the punch supplier or Scotchman should be consulted first; (i.e. do not punch material thicker than 1/4 inch with a 1/4 inch diameter punch). This rule of thumb applies to mild steel only and must be reduced by 50 percent when punching alloy steels. CAUTION: CONTACT YOUR LOCAL DEALER OR THE FACTORY BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO PUNCH ANY TYPE OF ALLOY STEEL. H. PUNCH FULL, COMPLETE HOLES. The side thrust encountered in punching partial holes can force the punch over against the die and result in punch or die breakage. THIS MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS BODILY INJURY. Special nibbling punch and die sets are available for punching into the edge of material. For further information, contact your local dealer or Scotchman. PAGE 30

31 I. MAINTAIN SUFFICIENT MATERIAL BETWEEN THE PUNCHED HOLE AND THE EDGE OF THE WORKPIECE. The edge of the punch should clear the edge of the workpiece by a distance equal to the thickness of the material. Any edge distance less than this will result in a deformed workpiece. J. DO NOT WORK WITH DULL OR DAMAGED TOOLING. CAUTION: WORKING WITH DULL OR DAMAGED PUNCHES AND DIES WILL INCREASE THE TONNAGE REQUIRED TO PERFORM THE OPERATION. THIS MAY RESULT IN FAILURE OF THE TOOL AND POSSIBLE INJURY TO PERSONNEL. IT WILL ALSO RESULT IN A LESS THAN DESIRABLE WORKPIECE. PAGE 31

32 6.2 ANGLE SHEAR The 4 x 4 angle shear is a component tool designed to shear angle iron. It installs on the tool table and has a maximum capacity of 4 x 4 x 3/8 inch (100 x 100 x 8mm) mild steel angle iron. The selector arm must be in the SHEAR position to operate this tool. 6.2A ANGLE SHEAR INSTALLATION SEE FIGURE 11 BELOW. PAGE 32 FIGURE 11

33 The 4 x 4 angle shear mounts in the tool station under the punch arm. 1. The selector arm must be in the SHEAR position and the punch arm up. 2. Slide the tool under the arm and against the frame of the machine. 3. The tool anchors to the tool table with the bolts (B) provided. 4. Make sure that the pressure block (A) is aligned squarely under the arm. 5. Grease the pressure block and blade guides before using and twice daily when this tool is in use. 6.2B ANGLE SHEAR OPERATION Apply oil to the upper and lower blades before the first cut is made and every 10 to 15 cuts, thereafter. Grease the slide block (A) every two hours of operation. This reduces cutting tonnage and increases blade life. The selector arm must be in the SHEAR position to operate this tool. USE THE FOLLOWING STEPS: 1. Feed the workpiece through the tool, keeping it horizontal with the tool. 2. Depress the foot pedal and shear the material. 3. The downstroke of the machine should be set for the size of material being sheared. IN ADDITION TO THESE BASIC STEPS, THE OPERATOR SHOULD BE FAMILIAR WITH THE FOLLOWING: A. MAINTAIN PROPER BLADE CLEARANCE. Do not work with dull or damaged blades. If the blades are chipped or dull, they should be replaced. FOR BLADE REPLACEMENT INSTRUCTIONS, SEE SECTION 6.2C. A clearance of forty (.040) thousandths of an inch per side between the upper and lower blades is recommended for material thicker than 1/4". For material 1/4" and smaller, add the shims provided with the tool. B. MITER CUTTING. The angle shear on this model is capable of mitering angle up to 2 x 2 x 3/8 inch (6 x 6 x 75mm) to forty five (45) degrees. To miter cut, feed the material into the shear until it contacts the lower blades opposite the side it is being fed from. There is an optional cutting guide available for miter cutting. C. UNEQUAL LEG ANGLE IRON REQUIRES SPECIAL BLADES. If large quantities of angle iron having unequal leg length (e.g. 2 x 3 inch 50 x 75mm) are to be sheared, a special top blade is required. Failure to use a special blade will result in damage to the tool. An occasional piece of unequal leg angle iron may be sheared with no harm to the tool. PAGE 33

34 6.2C REPLACING OR ADJUSTING ANGLE SHEAR BLADES SEE FIGURE 12 ON THE FOLLOWING PAGE. 1. Remove the tool from the machine. Make sure that the selector arm is in the SHEAR position and the punch beam is up before removing the tool. 2. Remove the top blade assembly and the front and back guards (K & R). 3. Remove the bolts (O) from the lower blades and remove the shims (S) and the lower blades (P). The lower blades are symmetrical and can be rotated or moved from side to side, to expose four cutting edges. 4. Rotate or replace the lower blades and shims. 5. Remove the bolt (F) from the top blade and replace the blade (C). 6. Install the top blade assembly in the housing, without the springs (Q) in place, and check the clearance between the upper and lower blades. The clearance should be forty (.040) to forty-five (.045) thousandths per side. If you are shearing light material and the tool is leaving a burr, install the shims providedwith the tool. 7. Remove the top blade assembly and install the springs (Q) in the unit. Before installing the top blade assembly, make sure that the guides (G) are in place and in good condition. Lubricate the sides of the top blade and install it in the unit. 8. Oil the blades and grease the tool before performing any work with this tool. PAGE 34

35 FIGURE 12 PAGE 35

36 6.3 BAR SHEAR OPERATION CAUTION: ANY TIME THAT THE SHEAR SECTION IS NOT IN USE, CRANK THE HOLD-DOWN DEVICE TO ITS FULLY CLOSED POSITION. BEFORE USING THE BAR SHEAR, REMOVE THE PUNCH AND DIE FROM THE PUNCH STATION. When using the bar shear, ALWAYS use the hold-down device. NEVER put any part of your body between the hold-down and the material to be sheared. A clearance of 1/16 of an inch (1.5mm) between the hold-down and the material to be sheared is acceptable. The maximum tonnage available is to the left, closest to the pivot point. For applications that do not require the maximum tonnage, move the material to the right, for minimal distortion on the drop-off piece. Do not attempt to shear pieces that are too short for the hold-down to grip. This will cause the material to kick up and will result in a poor quality cut and possible damage to the machine. THE OPERATION OF THE BAR SHEAR CONSISTS OF THE FOLLOWING FIVE BASIC STEPS: 1. Apply oil to the blades before making the first cut and every 10 to 15 cuts, thereafter. This will reduce cutting tonnage and increase blade life. 2. The selector arm must be in the SHEAR position. 3. Place the material under the hold down between the shear blades. 4. Crank the hold-down device down to the material. This prevents kick-up of the material, which Could cause injury to the operator and damage to the machine. 5. Keep your hands clear of all moving parts. 6. Depress the foot pedal and make the shear stroke. IN ADDITION TO THE ABOVE BASIC STEPS, THE OPERATOR SHOULD BE FAMILIAR WITH THE FOLLOWING: A. MAINTAIN PROPER BLADE CLEARANCE. The quality of the cut is an immediate indication of the condition of the shear blades, the clearance between the blades or the amount of spring-back in the shear arm. The blades are symmetrical and can be rotated to expose four (4) cutting edges. PAGE 36

37 B. HARD MATERIALS MAY DAMAGE BLADES. The 5014-CM Ironworker is designed to shear mild steel rated at 60,000 tensile. Within conservative limits, it can also operate in medium carbon annealed steel, stainless steel and some forms of abrasion resistant steel. These materials shear harder and will reduce shearing capacities. Materials, such as hardened tool steel, will damage or break blades and should not be sheared. Small concrete reinforcement bar can be sheared, but will reduce blade life considerably. C. KEEP THE CUT-OFF AREA CLEAR. Short cuts and slivers tend to build up in the drop-off side of the bar shear. Remove these pieces before a buildup develops.

38 6.3A BAR SHEAR ARM ADJUSTMENT SEE FIGURE 13 ON THE FOLLOWING PAGE. The shear arm adjustment is maintained by a pressure plate at the pivot point and rub blocks on the frame and arm. USE THE FOLLOWING STEPS TO ADJUST THE SHEAR ARM: 1. To prevent damage to the blades, back off or remove the lower shear blade before adjusting the shear arm. After the shear arm adjustments are completed, reset the blades following the instructions in SECTION 6.3B. 2. Loosen the lock nuts on the set screws (A) at the pivot point. 3. Tighten the set screws in a diagonal order. Do not over-tighten the set screws; it will only cause excessive wear. 4. Loosen the mounting bolts (B) from the frame rub block (C) and back off the set screws (D). 5. Inspect the frame rub plate (C) and the shear arm rub plate (E) for wear. Both plates can be rotated, if wear is noted. 6. With the arm in the up position, adjust the top two set screws (D) in until the rub plates (C & E) contact each other. 7. Power the machine and jog the shear arm down until the arm rub plate (E) aligns with the center set screws (D). Adjust the set screws in until the rub plates contact each other. Repeat this step for the bottom set screws. 8. Tighten the rub plate mounting bolts (B) and cycle the machine, making sure that the rub plates make contact throughout the full cycle. PAGE 38

The eight inch has twenty five tons of force. 7.3B EIGHT AND TWELVE INCH BRAKE OPERATION CAUTION: NEVER PUT YOUR HANDS INTO OR AROUND A BRAKE WHILE IT IS IN OPERATION. Hold short pieces with tongs or similar devices. In using the brake, it is necessary to load the brake centrally. (Visual centering is sufficient.) If work is performed off-center, the guide pins could be damaged. The brake lift is provided by springs. If sticking occurs at the bottom of the stroke and the upper die does not return, usually a slight tap on the upper die is sufficient to free the guides. CAUTION: NEVER ATTEMPT TO FREE THE BRAKE BY HAND. Sticking can be caused by lack of lubrication, the complexity of the part being bent or bent guide pins. Keep the guides well lubricated. It is common practice to have the bottom die opening 8 times the thickness of the material being bent. FOR TONNAGE REQUIREMENTS, SEE FIGURE 20 ON THE FOLLOWING PAGE. If parts require bends less than 90 degrees, adjust the stroke until the desired bend is obtained. A great variety of standard brake dies can be used with this unit. These are available from Scotchman Industries or your local dealer. CAUTION: ALWAYS REMOVE THIS TOOL WHEN IT IS NOT IN USE. PAGE 48
